For something that it's so specific and narrowed as this, finding a video about it made our lives in the studio so much easier, we were looking for trackpads, we couldn't find any bellow $80 and then we found this mouse for $50 and decided to give it a go. Bro, thanks! we got just what we needed! Perfect content! 10/10
Just got this mouse 2 days ago and appreciate the tips. I use mine in conjunction with the trackpad and Better Touch Tool to maximize the usability. New sub.
Wow, you made this vid back in 2018... just bought this mouse new from Amazon! Bought the magic mouse first... it wasn't magical AT ALL, but this MX Master 2S... is MASTERFUL! Great vid, and thank YOU!
So I got the trackball mouse version M570 and I had some trouble because the software particularly used in this video was different from what I had to download from this model I purchased. However, this video was very useful once I got to the Logitech site and got the right software. Thanks! it works the same but slightly different I hope this can prevent those who put a thumbs down very useful just not for all Logitech mouse models.
I´ve been using my MX master on my MacBook pro for over 1 year now, and I was totally okay with it. But after activating that gesture button... Man... A whole new experience with the MacBook and the MX. Inverting the feature with swiping through desktops makes it much more natural when you are used to swiping with the pad(and also iPhone and iPad.) I did not even know about the lower thumb button until I watched this video! Thanks!
Thanks a lot, Patrick! These settings are mostly helpful for me as a developer too. I didn't need zoom, so I changed Thumb button to mouse lock shift; helps me change between scroll few lines or a few hundred lines. Rest of the settings are perfect! That button in the middle is perfect for window gestures as well, because the thumb button is so hard to press.
Thank you so much for this! I just got an mx master 3 for mac and now have it dialed in with the gestures! This was super helpful. PS to those that have the mx master and are using on mac I would recommend downloading logi options + (beta). You can enable smooth scroll! SO much better than how it came out the box.
thanks, you saved my life -- well heheh my next productions. 100% like you, tried for years with trackpads in music productions and loved the gestures - but also thought they are not precise enough and also kind of exhasuting to use it in some cases (e.g. Drag&Drop) - thanks so much Patrick and greetzz from Berlin!!
Hi, I've the same question. Did you find a solution? I can zoom with the scroll wheels, but it would have been perfect to do that with gesture instead.
Unfortunately the latest Logitech Options software is buggy for Mac. My mouse keeps disonnecting and reconnecting constantly with the software installed.
this is correct. i just bought mine and had the same thing and saw the answer in a forum somewhere. remove your mouse completely (if you had it paired on bluetooth), then plug in the unifying receiver, add it VIA logitech options app, then add it to bluetooth and now it should work.
Thanks bud. Had not taken the time to dig into optimizing this mouse for my macbook pro and your video led me down the path to a more productive experience. Awesome - the custom settings are a game changer for me. MrTechie from Canada thanks you!
hello!! A little bit of an old vid, so it's definitely ok if you don't get it right away! Does the trackpad option for swiping between windows, & using the swiping gesture for the mouse, work the same for the Logitech203? I have figured out how to use the shortcut for the side buttons, but it would definitely be a smoother, more efficient to do it this way. I was also wondering how to save the custom settings. Do you have to export them, or do they automatically save, even if you have more than 1 profile set up? I work between Logic, Photoshop, and Chrome the most often. I will definitely be utilizing the shortcut tools for the mouse for PS. Thanks again, and great video, loved this!!
First I got the triathlon and used it.... for the price 26 bucks it’s worth it. But the size was but smaller so I got master 2s for 70 bucks. 6/29/19 I haven’t opened it but customize feature and workflow are preferential but size of this I believe is a bit bigger and better
Thank you greatly for this video, I couldn't get spaces -- I'm using the old school term for referring to switching virtual desktops on mac, I don't like referencing mission control by name--to work with the gesture button on the 2s and although I knew about changing the keyboard shortcuts, I didn't know control left arrow and right arrow respectively makes this work until I tested it where control 1 and control 2 wouldn't work with the gesture button. Sorry for the long post, thank you for this! I have like and subscribed too so it helps you out here.
Thank you for this video! When setting it up gesture button and some other features didn't work (like switching desktop). I was needed to give the app permission to control my computer at System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> check Logi Options Daemon
thanks Patrick. I did get the Logitech MX 2s on Friday.. I produce on Logic Pro X. I love my Magic Mouse1 I really did until it started disconnecting over and over and over the past year so i decided to get another mouse.. My experience with the MX2S has been good.. I'm getting use to it especially using the horizontal scroll wheel.. Frankly, I'm going to keep this MX2S and get the Magic Mouse 2.. I didn't know that it has a charger.. I just like how Magic Mouse is soooo smoooth when i scroll, edit, produce in Logic Pro.. Otherwise, MX2S is a solid alternative.. INDEED.. this youtuber is great.. Love his humor and energy..
With the trackpad 3 finger swipe up is very responsive you know. Mission control transition happens as you swipe up. If you pause the swipe midway the mission control pauses at the same position. Same for three finger left/right desktop movement. Is it the same with this mouse when you do mission control or swipe desktop gestures? Or is it like similar to keyboard shortcuts for mission control and desktop swipe gestures that do not have any control midway?
Hi man, thanks for the video. I want to ask you if there any way to set a custom shortcut (like cnt+I for example) for any of those buttons. Thanks in advance. Best!
hi Patrick, hope you well, everything was working fine with my mx master 2 but today found I can't zoom in with the setup you have , even though it worked yesterday?? any ideas? tried reset etc but no luck, appreciate any advice thanks Jon
dude can u make content on how the mx plays on in audio editing shortcuts like delete, copy, paste ,that alt drag drop in clips kind of stuff basically handling the shortcut keys like command c command v kind of stuff
Love these type of videos. Always looking for gear that makes the music making life more simplistic. Have you ever checked out the Softube Console 1 MK2?
Omg i thought that swiping through apps couldn't work on any other mouse/trackpad other than Apples owns and it has always been that thing why i don't change my mouse to other one. But now because it's possible im definetly upgrading to MX Anywhere 2s. Also my Magic Mouse 2 broke yesterday so...

The best video ever about this! Thanks for sharing this man!
I just got the MX Master to replace my trackpad/magic mouse and I really like how you set up the gestures! Thanks!

Dude that was really helpful! what's more than that is I found that I really like your style!
great video, didnt think it would be able to fulfill my gesture needs
YES! Finally a video that tells me zoom in zoom out function works well with master 3, shall go buy one now! thank you!
Thanks a lot, Patrick! These settings are mostly helpful for me as a developer too.
I didn't need zoom, so I changed Thumb button to mouse lock shift; helps me change between scroll few lines or a few hundred lines.
Rest of the settings are perfect! That button in the middle is perfect for window gestures as well, because the thumb button is so hard to press.
I knew there had to be some software to complete the setup! Super helpful video, thank you!
Decisions made. Changing to the MX Master from the Apple Magic Mouse soon. Thanks for making this video!

Very useful video Patrik! Thanks a lot! Swane.
Thank you for sharing your configurations. I have added screenshot when clicked on middle button.

So glad I found this video!
thank you so much for this video! just got this mouse today for my MacBook air and it's really helpful.
Thank you for setup info Patrick, I like it
Thank you so much.
No one makes such video.
Thanks man, just picked an MX 2s up and wasn't really feeling it, but definitely going to be trying these options out.
MAN! THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!! I was looking for the swipe feature alot!!!!
Wonderful video and thanks for taking the time to do it! How did you set your mouse to zoom both vertically and horizontally in logic? Thanks
Hi, I've the same question. Did you find a solution?
I can zoom with the scroll wheels, but it would have been perfect to do that with gesture instead.
@@matin4016 Did you guys find out a solution for this? 😮💨
This was super helpful, I just got the MX Master so I really needed to know how to best configure it.
Super stoked on finding your channel much love from Vancouver Canada 🇨🇦
Your recommendation is much better than the default
awesome vid, this is what I'm looking for, thanks mate !!!
Very helpful! Thank you!!!!
This was an excellent video! Great instructions and editing
Excellent video! Subbed!
great video txs!
Unfortunately the latest Logitech Options software is buggy for Mac. My mouse keeps disonnecting and reconnecting constantly with the software installed.
Hm. Might be the mouse itself? I'd contact Logitech, I'm sure they'll hook you up with a replacement!
you have to hold the button on the bottom on the back until it blinks rapidly, that way its fully connected
I'm having the same issue. It connects and reconnects.. pretty annoying
this is correct. i just bought mine and had the same thing and saw the answer in a forum somewhere. remove your mouse completely (if you had it paired on bluetooth), then plug in the unifying receiver, add it VIA logitech options app, then add it to bluetooth and now it should work.
Only on Mac? On Windows is buggy too! Same issue!
Thank you. Received my MX Master 2S today and your video is very helpful.

Awesome! Just what I needed, have been using this mouse for a week and was really missing exactly these features.

this mouse plus better touch tools app to really customize it, is the perfect combination
Great video! Is there a way I can activate both horizontal and vertical zoom from the mouse? I can only seem to do horizontal
same here....did u find out? pls help
@@Devourthythrone Did you guys find out a solution for this? 2 years later 😮💨
Thanks for these tips! Awesome.

That was real cool. THANKS for sharing.
Thanks a lot man !
Not interested in your other videos but this video is perfect!
Thank you Patrick! This video was very useful. I have had this mouse since 2017 and have now finally set it up properly! Million Thanks!

What about a new mouse version it is worst or i buy this version? Thanks

I have the magicmouse 2 and i hate it! I use the trackpad and a 10 euro mouse... The magicmouse 2 has no ergonomics and that is what i hate the most.

Hi! Is it possible set a button (like one of those on the side) as a keyboard modifier key (like alt or shift)? Thank you!
Thank you, Patrick.
great! Thank you
Can you use the mouse w/o downloading the software? Reviews show that the software sends out data?
Thanks alot Patrick! was lost and unable to do the window switch! you made my day!
Awesome man. Glad this helped!
Hey how did you activate vertical zoom on Logic?
Did u find out? i m looking for the same
Can I customise a button with a keyboard shortcut for example Control + D ?
Hi man, thanks for the video. I want to ask you if there any way to set a custom shortcut (like cnt+I for example) for any of those buttons. Thanks in advance. Best!
For some reason I got everything to work but I can't swipe to change desktops with the same settings you have. Pretty confused.
Do you adjust the mouse settings in the main settings app?
hi Patrick, hope you well, everything was working fine with my mx master 2 but today found I can't zoom in with the setup you have , even though it worked yesterday?? any ideas? tried reset etc but no luck, appreciate any advice thanks Jon
Those settings help me a lot. Been looking for a good, fast setup for a software developer. These will work. Thank you!
Amazing tricks!
dude can u make content on how the mx plays on in audio editing shortcuts like delete, copy, paste ,that alt drag drop in clips kind of stuff basically handling the shortcut keys like command c command v kind of stuff
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing it! I had the problem that my switching desktop was mapped differently and this fixed it :)
So glad to hear it! This video is a bit "off-brand" for me, but I knew these settings would help somebody out there!
What settings did you choose for vertical zoom and horizontal zoom in your DAW?
Mine just arrived right now. I'm setting mine up
super helpful!
Love these type of videos. Always looking for gear that makes the music making life more simplistic. Have you ever checked out the Softube Console 1 MK2?
Tiffany Onwudinanti thank you!! I have never used the Softune Console 1, but it looks dopeeeeee!
Couldn't work out why switch desktop wasn't working so thank you for explaining that
Omg i thought that swiping through apps couldn't work on any other mouse/trackpad other than Apples owns and it has always been that thing why i don't change my mouse to other one. But now because it's possible im definetly upgrading to MX Anywhere 2s. Also my Magic Mouse 2 broke yesterday so...
